Oxidative stress alters global histone modification and DNA methylation
The JmjC-domain-containing histone demethylases (JHDMs) can remove histone lysine-methylation and thereby regulate gene expression. The JmjC-domain uses iron Fe (II) and α-ketoglutarate (αKG) as cofactors in an oxidative demethylation reaction via hydroxymethyl-lysine. We hypothesize that reactive o...
